Thank You very much
Wow. That looks familiar. Purchased off Craigslist. It was in really bad shop. Tonguebox couldn't be salvaged. Wish I could find the canvas.
Any details on the construction?

The frame was build by a friend using "C" channel metal and then a large flat piece of metal put on top. The tongue is 2.5 x 2.5 and a 2 x 2 piece to slide inside to make an adjustable tongue. The axle is a 3500 lbs axle to get the 5 x 5 bolt pattern to match the JK. I used 700 lbs springs, because the where the lightest I could find, the trailer loaded weights in at 1235 lbs. the box is made out of wood, with a 2 X 8 creating the slope on the side and the rest being 1x2 to make the frame and ply wood for the sides. The box has its own floor and can be removed if need. The lid is a 2 X 2 frame and ply wood, with foam seals inside the lid to seal up the box, been through major storms and no leaking.
I have more detailed pictures that I can post later.
Some of this might get changed up next month, looking at improvements
I don't think my stock M101 off-road would fit in here, but I am subscribing anyway

This is my three year old Jumping Jack tent trailer that has been heavily modified. We drive it about 10,000 mi per year and have a lot of fun with it.

Matching wheels...
The icing on the cake....
I wanted to add a 31 gallon water tank to the underside of the trailer so I lifted it. JJ's are really low slung and I made it 3" taller so this would work without hitting the axle. The matching wheels were a given considering some of the places we've gone.Matching wheels...

I do have to give a shout out to Adventure Trailer who made my water tank and skids.

finished up my lid a few nights ago. Finished the tent rack last night.
Here's the latest on this trailer, built a rack for the RTT, working on a fold down kitchen work area, where the drawers still slide out underneath. All under the awning!
